Vichy Aqualia Thermal Awakening Eye Balm, Rs 1,350

Your eyes are the most sensitive part of your face, and the most strained. The only time they’re ever at rest is when you’re asleep at night (which is why enough sleep is stressed over that much). While it may be hard to nap in-between work—we’re still waiting on sleep pods to make their way to our HQ—your eyes can use some extra TLC at the end of the day. Plus, the often-ignored thin skin around your eyes starts to show signs of ageing the fastest, which is accelerated by stress. Think dry skin, dark circles, fine lines and under-eye wrinkles that are far from faint.

Our edit of eye creams, roll-ons and serums are the perfect way to make your shut-eye work harder than it does. Apply a thin layer of any of these products on your eyes, tap it in with your ring finger (it has the lightest touch of all) and let your eyes bask in the cooling sensation. Ingredients like cucumber, aloe vera, coffee and vitamin extracts will relieve your peepers of puffiness, lighten those dark circles and make you look a lot fresher than you might otherwise feel.
